Woody Marks a Full Practice Participant, Cleared for Week 17 Return

Houston Texans running back Woody Marks (ankle) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice, confirming he is on track to return for Saturday's game against the Chargers. Marks sustained his ankle injury in Week 15 against the Cardinals and subsequently missed last Sunday's game against the Raiders. His return is a significant boost for the Texans' backfield, where he is expected to serve as the lead option. In 14 games this season, Marks has recorded 167 carries for 584 yards and two touchdowns.
